7 T h e Beginning of the Church in Holland This is the year of jubilee for Hope College. Three favored men out of the eight who constituted the first graduating class still survive to connect us with the di.stant past; but the leaders of the early days have all entered into their rest. Hope College is the enactment of the dream of these men and women of pioneer days, the realization of their lofty ideals, the fulfillment of their prophecy. But who were these Pilgrim Fathers of the West, and why is Hope College a denominational school and a Christian institution? The answer to these questions takes us back to the second quarter of the nineteenth century, to the land of R e m brandt and of William the Silent. It was that unhappy period in the history of the Netherlands when it dropped down to the low water mark of its national decline, both politically, economically and religiously. Space forbids here to tell the story of the tyranny of the State Church and the struggle for religious liberty. As a penalty for advocating the right of freedom in religion and denying authority to the State to interfere, seven ministers were punished by expulsion from the State Church. This proved the beginning of a new church denomination. Thousands voluntarily left the State Church to join the movement. When the Government could no longer stem the popular tide, it became more lenient, endeavored to regulate it, and even offered a conditional support from the national treasury. But a subsidy they^ would not accept they would not jeopardize their religious independence by accepting a bribe. For a complete emanticipation there appeared to be no way open for them except voluntary exile. Cape Colony to the southward and Java in the East Indies were in turn considered and rejected. In the meantime their far cry for help had reached N e w Netherlands across the sea, and was heard by men like De Witt, Wyckoff and Garretson. Based upon ample and reliable information, the leaders became convinced that America offered, in ample measure, what had been the burden of their search fertile soil and freedom; and America was selected. N o w the campaign for colonization was on. Meetings were held in various cities of the Kingdom. Only people who had religious convictions were interested only such were wanted.

8 Emigration by families and as individuals was discouraged for they feared dispersion. Church societies with their chosen pastors and leaders took ship and moved as a unit from the old world to the land of promise in the new. Such were the antecedents of the people who were destined to lay the foundations of Hope College. They were not fortunehunters. They were not emigrants. They were colonists. Said Reverend James Romeyn in 1847 in a report to the Synod of the Reformed Church in America, commenting on the concerted influ.x of population from Holland, This movement will not lose on the score of its moral grandeur by comparison with any associated act of emigration in the history of our country. It will now appear with clearness why Hope College is a denominational school, Christian in its character. There is an unbroken chain leading from Hope College of today back to the persecution of William I. Persecution led to separation from the State Church; separation in turn was the direct occasion of concerted colonization and the planting of a denominational school of higher learning in the new world. Without such a school there could not be a trained and learned ministry; and without a learned ministry, loyal to its tenets and doctrines, the Church would lack the means of perpetuating itself. On October 2, 1846, was taken the first concerted step that was to lead to the settlement of Holland, Michigan, and that was, therefore, ultimately to determine the geographical location of Hope College. On that date a party of pilgrims under the leadership of Reverend A. C. Van Raalte left the port of Rotterdam in the sailing vessel. Southerner, reaching N e w York City November 17. The definite location of the new colony had not been determined, although there seemed to them to be much in favor of the state of Wisconsin. Michigan had not been considered. Westward they traveled, stopping successively at Albany, Buffalo, and Detroit. At each of those places, from state emigration officials, from public men, including- Governors and ex-president Martin Van Buren, and, especially, from clergymen of note in the Reformed Churches, Van Raalte collected extensive and valuable information. On December 16, the party reached Detroit. But it was winter now, lake travel to Milwaukee was closed, and, to their dismay, the party was oompelled to pass the winter at Detroit. Not so the leader. He at once proceeded to study the civil, religious and educational outlook of Michigan, and the conditions pleased him. He looked for fertile, unoccupied territory, not too far from markets and water transportation, and his attention was called to the western part of the state. After a personal inspection of this region, in the heart of winter. Van Raalte came to the momentous

10 decision to plant his colony on Black Lake, in Ottawa County, on the east shore of Lake Michigan. Other bands of pilgrims followed in rapid succession, locating new agricultural centers at varying distances from the Van Raalte colony. It is said that in August, 1848, the total number of colonists had reached four thousand. But there were no.schools, there were no teachers. And yet the Hollanders had the first common schools in Europe. These people had come here to Americanize, and to insist upon Christian training. But how could they, without schools and competent teachers? Besides, that first generation of boys and girls were needed to help build homes and make a living. Hard work and meager education that was the price they had to pay as their contribution to make this colony possible. ' The first official body of any recognized authority in the colony was the Classis, consisting of representatives from the local churches. Questions of importance, civil and ecclesiastical, were considered, and, by its decisions, determined. Projects and enterprises touching the public welfare were encouraged. At their first meeting, held in 1848, Van Raalte urged the importance of organizing into school districts under the public school system of the state. Again, in another meeting, 'the burden of the session was this thesis, That the character, outlook and prosperity of a people are dependent upon its education ; and that, therefore, the Church is culpably neglectful of its most sacred duty, if the Christian training of her young people is neglected. In 1848 overtures were received from the Synod of the Reformed Church in America to attend its meetings, but, owing to dist.ance and expense, the invitation was not immediately accepted. The following year. Synod sent a delegate in the person of Dr. I. N. Wyckoff to lay this matter before the colonists; and after careful consideration the first steps were taken that were to cement the union that was to bind the Holland Colony of the West to the Reformed Church in America. This union at once gave a new impetus to the revival of the educational spirit. With high hopes and sacred promise these idealists had left European conditions behind them; and yet, for these four years, under the dead-weight of poverty and depressing conditions, they had been unable to take the first step to establish a Christian school to train their children for American citizenship and for the service of man and God. N o w Synod proposed the establishment of an institution of high order for classical and theological instruction. Dr. John Garretson, Secretary of the Board of Domestic Missions, after a personal visit, drew up a plan for such a school. Subscriptions

12 were at once opened and the suggestion made that five acres of land shall be procured by gift or otherwise, to be located in the town of Holland for the use and purpose of an Academy, and as soon as funds can be obtained for that purpose, suitable buildings shall be erected on said land. Under the above arrangement, Walter C. Taylor, then an elder in the Reformed Church of Geneva, N. Y., and proprietor of a flourishing institution there, having been appointed to take charge of the school, began his work in October, When Mr. Taylor entered on his work, the only school in the place, was the ordinary district school; and of this, as his report shows, he now took charge. It was a combination district school and semi-parochial academy. Here he organized his first Latin class; and the report of his work was prepared for the General Synod. To that first report was appended a statement by Dr. A. C. Van Raalte containing this appealing, weighty, prophetic sentence, This is m y A N C H O R O F H O P E for this people in the future. It was this notable sentence, as simple as it was felicitous, which gave the name Hope College, and led to the selection of the Anchor as its official seal. At this early date the question of language was a baffling one. The purity of the noble mother tongue was sadly marred by its admixture with the impure colloquial and the faulty English of the backwoods; while yet it was evident that for years to come the pulpit must be served by the mother tongue. In 1852 therefore, with the consent and encouragement of Principal Taylor, the Classis of Holland extended a call to Professor A. Brummelkamp, an accomplished preacher and teacher of -Kampen, Netherlands, to take charge of the Holland language in the new Academy. This call was declined, and the effort to Hollandize the Academy abandoned.. In a meeting of Classis in April, 1853, it was pointed out by Dr. Van Raalte that the new institution would sooner or later need better accommodations, that continued use of the district school was not justifiable, and that, in the nature of the case, a church school? must have its own property and financial foundation. He offered, therefore, to donate the east ten lots five acres of ground in Block L. To the founder of the colony, therefore, the leader in all civic progress and the soul of the educational movement, belongs the added honor of giving to the new school a location and a.home. According to Minutes of Classis, so highly was this first gift; of real estate prized that, to show their appreciation, members of a church ten miles out, offered their services to come down and clear the new school grounds of superfluous timber. There was no money all knew that. So the Classis made this solemn appeal to every Chri.stian

14 man in the colony, Cannot a man set aside, for this sacred interest, a thousand staves or a cord of bark, and a farmer ten bushels of corn or of potatoes, or a little pork and butter, and a laborer a couple-of-days wages? And they did! Heroic times and heroic men these were and posterity may not forget them. Days of poverty and privation, the day of small things? Yes. But also days of courage and faith and thanksgiving even of enthusiasm! And for what all this sacrifice? In the public utterances of their intrepid leader we find the ringing answer, Lest this people sink into insignificance, Lest our children become the fag-end of society [ Opdat dit volk niet in onbeduidenheid vervalle, Opdat ons nageslacht niet ten staarte worde. ] They wanted a Christian school to prepare, in a general way, for high grade American citizenship and the intelligent development of Christian character; but, more specifically, they wanted a school to serve the three-fold purpose to equip competent teachers, to train ministers, and to prepare missionaries for the foreign field. Up to 1857 the school remained without a building, but the accession of students from the distance made the need a pressing one. At its meeting in June, Synod, therefore, recommended Dr; Van Raalte to the liberality of the Eastern Churches in his efforts to collect funds for the erection of an adequate edifice. The moneys for the building aggregating $12,000 were chiefly collected by Dr. Van Raalte, at the East, with much labor, on three separate tours for the purpose. The work of construction was personally directed by the Principal, Reverend John Van Vleck and the building is today justly known as Van Vleck Hall. It is indeed not a striking edifice now; but will the as.sertion seem absurd, that when first constructed. Van Vleck Hall and the old First Church were two of the most imposing structures in Western Michigan? It was now observed that the future opening of one of the streets would materially impair the property, and Dr. Van Raalte collected money for the purchase of two entire blocks, and further secured the legal authority to close the intervening street. The premises, thus increased from five to sixteen acres, located in the heart of the city, constitute the present campus of Hope College whose natural beauty is probably unexcelled by that of any college in the state. Interesting is the story that discloses the relation^ between Hope College and the Reformed Church in America. Since 1848 the annual Minutes of Synod are never silent on this matter. It is the relation of mother and daughter mutual, interested, appreciative, loyal. For sixty-eight years the best minds and hearts of the Church, both clergy and laymen, have given lib-

16 erallv of their means and best thought for the welfare and encouragement of this Christian College. The relationship began with domestic missionary work, under the secretaryship of Dr. Garretson, in establishing the pioneer school. In 1853 it rose to a new stage, when the care of the school was by Synod assigned to its Board of Education. In the meantime the school served as a feeder to Rutgers College its graduates entering undergraduate classes in the Eastern School of the Church. But ere long the school, now known as Holland Academy, grew in numbers and importance until it involved a degree of responsibility it was unreasonable to expect the Board of Education to bea'r alone, when in 1863 Synod formally assumed the burden of its support and control. Here then closes the record of those pre-college days, when the first Freshman Class was organized, at the time of whose graduation the school, under the leadership of Dr. Rhelps, was incorporated as Hope College.. Tis fitting in this commemorative year, we should bring to memory, even if only in briefest outline, the names of the teachers of pioneer and old academy days: From the autumn of 1851, beginning with Elder Walter C. Taylor, till June, 1863, the institution for twelve years was in a formative state, comprising three periods of four years each; namely: under the principalship of Mr. Taylor, except that the last year was temporarily occupied by Reverend. F. P. Beidler; under the principalship of Reverend John Van Vleck, with whom was associated during Reverend Abraham Thompson, and during Reverend Giles Van De Wall; and under the principalship of Reverend Philip Phelps, Jr., with w h o m was associated, as before, , Reverend Giles Van De Wall. The half-century we celebrate has been a period of steady normal growth. Besides the present incumbent, three Presidents have served the institution: Reverend Philip Phelps, D. D Reverend Charles Scott, D. D Professor Gerrit J. Kollen, LL. D The interim was filled provisionally by Reverend G. H. Mandeville, D. D., , and Dr. Scott H o w splendidly these men did serve their day! In the hearts of their alumni there is a depth of love and a sincerity of esteem and reverence which is only growing with the passing years. _ In conclusion it is not out of place to repeat the question, whether Hope College is indeed the enactment of the dream of the heroic men and women of pioneer days, the realization of their lofty ideals, and the fulfillment of their prophecies? Posterity must answer that question, and it must also make

18 good its answer to the generations following. These far-seeing leaders builded better than they knew. Their ideal was lofty the length of it and the breadth of it and the height of it was too large to be realized in one generation. Rome was not built in a day. The leaders did not see it with their eyes as we see it today. They saw by faith and they were satisfied. J O H N H. KLEINHEKSEL. The foregoing sketch was written by a man who had lived through the period described and who himself had been one of the makers of the history recorded. He did not live to see the full commemoration of the jubilee years; for while upon the campus the pageantry of half a century was moving across the boards before delighted audiences, his soul was listening to the wash of the waters against the shore where lay a skiff ready to cast off her lines and bear him on the journey from out this bourne of time and place. Since that day three others have gone, President A m e Vennema, D. D., Professor Douwe B. Yntema, A. M., and Professor Almon T. Godfrey, A. M., M. D. The ten years which followed the Fiftieth Anniversary have been years of notable changes in every aspect of our national life but of all these changes the greatest has occurred in the field of education. These changes have brought the ruin of manv educational institutions. They have brought undreamedof wealth to others. Purposes have changed; curricula have changed; standards have changed. Some institutions have taken on the functions of universities and of them it may be said that they have generalized their field. Others have defined their original purposes more certainly and have, it mav be said, become specialists in certain types of education. H O P E C O L L E G E never professed ambitions toward university functions although at one time one of its leaders did picture a Hope Haven University and General Synod discussed the idea as a solution of certain details of theological administration. However, there has always been a well-defined purpose in view, and further definition was not necessary for her. Yet with H O P E COLLEGE, as with others, the current changes have wrought effects. One of these effects has been the growing appreciation in the hearts and minds of the men and women connected with the American Reformed Church that the College had always combined the fundamental principles of education with a progressiveness which was sure in its achievements. It is interesting to note that throughout the world earlier education was primarily cultural and did not propose a life of activity which was to be motivated by the educative process. Only in the modern age

19 has education been peculiarly vocational. H O P E COLLEGE, from the day of its inception in the minds of the pioneer, aimed at a life which was to achieve through culture, a culture which itself was the product of study of and contacts with the sciences, tvith the humanities and with the thought systems of the race. The achievements were to be first and foremost in the Gospel Ministry but other fields of endeavor were not forgotten. Such a scheme could never be narrow. Neither could it countenance the hurried trend toward immature specialization and shortterm professionalism. The progress of the last decade has been determined by these facts of her early history. President A m e Vennema, D. D., was directing the work of the College in all its departments in 1916 when the Jubilee Celebration was held. He resigned in 1918 after seven years of most arduous and successful labor. The building plans of former administrations had been carried to successful conclusion by 1911 but there was pathetic lack of funds to carry on the work and to keep buildings in repair. The Church was doing little more than highly resolve and graciously commend. In 1910 the total denominational contributions were $ President Vennema knew what the College had done for the Church for he was in close touch with all the activities of the denomination east and west while he was serving leading churches, was a member of important boards and committees and was, during the year 1907, President of General Synod. He set about on a publicity campaign in a series of letters and monographs which brought quick results, for a year later, in 1912, he reported that the church contributions for 1911 had been increased to $1, Beyond a doubt all the other educational institutions are faring well today because of this intensive work which paved the way for the later work of the Board of Education and the Pi-ogress Council in Education. In 1918, at the time of PresidenL^Venema s I esignation, church contributions had risen to the to'tal of $4, That year 38 young men and women graduated from the Senior Class, all of w h o m went into some form of religious or social service. No one can reckon what the real income for the Church during the life time of these graduates will be in terms of monetary return, but the dividend will be a very great one. Reckoned in terms of life, social and spiritual, the Church may well realize that it is impossible to tell how largely she has profited. Endowments had not increased in proportion to President Vennema s hopes or the instituuon s needs. These amounted in 1911 to $333,751.45, while in A^il, 1918, they total $554,820.12, a gain of $220, In view of the difficulty of obtaining funds for a small institution this was a great increase, yet the

20 President s financial sagacity was proved most by the fact that he kept capital outlay at the lowest possible figure while he sought, through the building up of a loyal church and individual support, to pay operative costs as they accrued. This, too, was the period of war strain and stress and the burdens of oversight were increased greatly. But never once did the President waver from the clear and certain policies which he had laid down for himself. Finance was important but scholarship remained the principal product of the College a scholarship which was to guide the spiritual and moral welfare of the denomination to a large extent and to go out beyond the denomination into society and into civic and international life. Collegiate activities were fostered insofar as they enhanced the value of college culture. A new era was about to dawn and that era could be met only as the watchman on the tower kept in touch with the signs of each minute as it passed. That is a fine bit of rhetorical invention which pictures the lone sentinel on the ramparts and fancies the occasional cry, Watchman, what of the night? followed with an immediate response, See.that glory-beaming star! But the vigils of the watchman are not told. 'The chill of the late night, the nervous silence of the dark, the tense strain of warder heart and responsible nerve, these and the clear judgment between flashing meteor and ageborn star, between vagrant auroral beam and Princely Gleam, are left to poetic suspense. But the watchman knows them all! More pathetic still, even the fancied cry is seldom heal'd and full often the watchman gets his first relief from the cock s shrill clarion. President Vennema in the last days of his administrative work had a sure message to give. He pointed the way for the workers of the coming day. 'The next eight years have held nothing new. They have been the unfolding of the earlier plans. They, too, have aimed to lay foundations upon which ultimately an abiding superstructure may be built. During the period which immediately followed the Great War society was in a maze and even now seems to delight in remaining there. But education has taken definite trends which were forecast by those who looked ahead during the last days of 1917 and during the year If positive statements may be made at this stage of our reconstruction, these thoughts may be taken as indicative of the situation: 1. Scholarship has come back into its own and has survived the brash cry that vocationalism must be the national ideal; 2. The difference has been seen in all clearness between an educational scheme which would democratize education by giving degrees to every one regardless of mentality or liberal spirit and a plan in collegiate work which should make the

21 benefits of education social without prostituting liberal art; 3. Civilization depends upon a constant progress toward ideals rather than upon the pronouncement of a theoretical formula of points. This is but another way of stating the ideals which carried the flower of Europe s manhood during three centuries to find root in America s virgin soil. Van Raalte could have thought no more in 1847, would have said no less. Of recent years H O P E has voiced herself thus A Purposeful Christianity and for this she offers to youth and to the Church Scholarship, Service, Sanctification. For this her equipment in 1926 consists of a plant valued at close to three quarters of a million, an endowment fund of eight hundred thousand, a faculty of twenty-five loyal men and women and a faith as bouyant as that of the fathers. For this her immediate plans call for a Memorial Chapel which will be the religious center of the life of the College. Her equipment in literary and scientific facilities must be doubled. Her endowment must reach $2,000,000. For she aims at a great task in the coming days. If the achievements of the past sixty years justify the faith of the fathers, her own trust is justified by her vjsion of this task. When the voice of curious science startled the depths of the oceans, its tones, being interpreted, were, What hath God wrought. When the voice of colonial purpose startled the primeval wilderness, the leaves became vocal, This is m y Anchor of Hope. No greater gap lies between Field s submarine cable and Byrd s radiogram when his plane hovered above the North Pole on the ninth day of May, 1926, than that which measures the distance between the substance of Van Raalte s hopes in 1847 and the evidence of things seen in God hath wrought and -will; the Anchor holds and will. Is Hope College indeed the enactment of the dream of the heroic men and women of pioneer days, the realization of their lofty ideals, and the fulfillment of their prophecies? This question Professor John H. Kleinheksel places at the close of his chronicle and he follows with this statement, Posterity must answer the question. 'Through the ten years which have elapsed since his hand penned this challenge two student generations) have given their answer and four hundred twenty young men and women graduates stand before the world, not dream figures nor play actors, but rather those prophets that should come. Their reply for the future to this master-man s challenge is: M y Father worketh hitherto and I work. W. M. L.

22 L Hope College Campus in 1866 The first building erected upon Hope College Campus was Van Vleck Hall in The money amounting to $12,000 was collected by Dr. Van Raalte while the work of construction was directed by Mr. Van Vleck. In that same year was built the barn or storehouse which after 1866 was used as a laboratory. The Zwemer House was erected in 1857 by Dominie Zwemer when he was a student in the institution. The G y m nasium was built by the students and the Principal in In those pioneer days the students themselves went into the woods to log the timber for the structure. The Oggel House was erected under the superintendence of Mr. Phelps in It was a professorial residence built for Mr. Van De Wall but was occupied in 1864 by Prof. Oggel and since called by his name. The Printing House was erected in the earliest days of the colony. In it, both Mr. Taylor and Mr. Van Vleck began their teaching and laid the foundation for the Academy. Used afterwards as a parochial school, for prayer meetings, for election polls, and for a residence, it was, in 1863, donated by Dr. Van Raalie s congregation to the institution for its printing operations. The Campus in 1926 Of the buildings which are landmarks of pioneer days, the following are still upon the Campus: Van Vleck Hall, The Oggel House, The Grammar School. Van Vleck Hall is still used as a dormitory for men. The Oggel House and The Grammar School are now the homes of the various literary and scientific societies. The other buildings have been erected since Photographs of these structures will be shown on following pages.

132 T H E COLLEGE OF T O D A Y LOCATION Hope College is located in Holland, Western Michigan, in Ottawa County. It has a population of 14,000 inhabitants. The Pere Marquete Railway affords direct connection with the leading cities east, and with Chicago and other points west. It is 25 miles from Grand Rapids, and 152 miles from Chicago. The Goodrich line gives boat service to Chicago. The city lies on Black Lake (Macatawa Bay) and is in the heart of Michigan s famous fruit and resort, section. G R O U N D S A N D B U I L D I N G S. The College Campus lies in the center of the city, between Tenth and Twelfth streets, and College and Columbia avenues, and contains sixteen acres. It presents a finely varied surface, is well shaded with native trees, and is annually improving in beauty and attractiveness. The College buildings are ten in number. Van Vleck Hall is the dormitory for men. < The building was used successively as President s residence and Lecture Hall, as Lecture Hall, Library and Men s Dormitory, and as Men s Dormitory since It was completely'remodeled in 1923 and is now in most modern condition with standard sanitary, heating and lighting equipment. Graves Library and Winants Chapel, which include the Administration Chambers, a Reading Room, Library Stack Room, a V. M. C. A. hall, four lecture rooms and a Chapel, afford suitable and improved accommodations for all these purposes. Van Raalte Memorial Hall was dedicated and occupied September 16, In it are located the Chemical, Physical, and Biological laboratories, and lecture rooms devoted to Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Modern Languages, Public Speaking, Religious Education, English and Mathematics. The Museum is located on the fourth floor. Maria L. Ackerman Hoyt Observatory. In 1894 a valuable addition was made to the equipment of the College in the form of a telescope obsei-vatory. Miss Bmilie S'. Coles generously donated both ob.servatory and telescope in memory of Mrs. Maria L. Ackerman Hoyt. The instrument is an eighteen-inch N e w tonian reflecting telescope, with equatorial mounting.

134 Elizabeth R. Voorhees Hall. In October, 1905, one hundred thousand dollars was given by Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Voorhees on toe annuity plan for the erection and maintenance of a Girls Residence to be erected upon the campus. 'The building was»completed and formally opened June 18, Model but sirnple apartments for girls away from their own homes is the object sought, and every convenience compatible with residence life is aimed at. The building is heated by steam and lighted by electricity. There is running water in all the rooms and commodious bathing facilities on each floor. Rooms are provided for a dean of women and her assistants so that there may be constant care and supervision. The studios and practice rooms of the School of Music are located on the first floor. A dining hall and parlors are located also on the first floor. The Eighth Day of May of each year is observed as Voorhees Day in commemoration of the birthday of Mrs. Elizabeth R. Voorhees. A formal afternoon reception is given by the Dean of W o m e n and the Senior Girls to the College Girl Students and their parents. Carnegie Hall. Carnegie Hall, the funds for the erection of which were given by Mr. Andrew Carnegie in 1905, was completed and dedicated in June, The Building has been constructeol so that it can be u.sed for public meetings of all kinds in adition to serving as a well-equipped gymnasium. It has a seating capacity of 1,500. The different numbers of the College Lecture Course are given in the Hall during the school year, and the official public e.xercises of the College are held regularly in it. Through the loyal, enterprising spirit of the class of 1913, a drop curtain was provided and presented to the College in October, Auxiliary curtains and hangings have been added from year to year. The gymnastic equipment comprises all the apparatus necessary to the latest and most approved physical exercise. 'The ventilation and heating systems are fully adapted to the double purpose for which the building is designed, and in the basement shower baths are provided in separate sections of the building for the use of men and women students. A full schedule of hours for work is arranged each year; physical instruction and medical supervision are provided for as required. The building with its equipment and courses is under the supervision of Director John H. L. Schouten. The other buildings upon the campus comprise the Presidents home, the Oggel House, Grammar Hall, and the Hope

135 Clarence Kleis,- A. B. Albert E. Lampen, A. M.

136 Printing Office. The Oggel House and Grammar Hall are u.sed for the men s literary societies. S C H O O L Y E A R The scholastic year of forty weeks begins on the third W e d nesday in September, and ends with the general Commencement on the third Wednesday in June. The year is divided into two semesters. A D V A N T A G E S O F F E R E D Besides the advantages of location, easy communication, and ine.xpensive living, it is believed Hope College may justly call attention to equally important advantages of a very different nature. It is a chartered institution incorporated under the laws of the state and legally entitled to grant certificates and diplomas and to confer degrees. Classes are sectioned and areilof a size which permits the personal contact and acquaintance of each member of the Faculty with every student. This personal element is a factor of great educational value both morally and intellectually,_and parents do well to consider it in making choice of an institution. Hope College is not a local institution. Its students represent an extensive territory, extending east to N e w England and N e w York, and west to the Pacific coast. 'The students in general possess a high order of ability and a laudable ambition to make their way in the world. E X A M I N A T I O N S Written examinations are held in all departments at the close of each semester, or whenever a subject is completed. In finals, examination grades are averaged with semester grades on the basis of one point for examinations to two points for semester grades and the quotient is made the percentage grade for the course. R E L I G I O U S A C T I V I T I E S The program of each day begins with Religious Worship in Winants Chapel at 8 a. m. Each student in residence is expected to attend religious services on Sunday in one of the churches of the city.-

137 Irwin J. Lubbers, A. B. Frank N. Patterson,Ph. D.

138 The following religious bodies have congregational groups in the city: American Reformed Church, eight; Christian Reformed Church, six; Baptist, two; Methodist Episcopal, one; Wesleyan Methodist, one; Anglican, one; Seventh Day Adventist, one; Church of God, one; Roman Catholic, one; Independent Mission,, one. Religious Education Courses are offered during the four years of the College Course and every student takes two semester hours of work during each year of residence. These courses are being enlarged and developed constantly. An appeal is made here directly to those who may be interested in this most important phase of educational work' to assist in financing and otherwise promoting the department of Religious Education. ' Although Hope College is denominational and is under the patronage and support of the American Reformed Church, by the law of its incorporation it can have no religious tests. The doors are open to all, regardless of religious or denominational affiliations, and welcome is given to alt who will submit to its scholastic regulations. As a Christian school, however, it inculcates gospel truths and demands a consistent moral character and deportment. The Young Men s Christian Association, organized in 1877, is in a flourishing condition, and continues to be a great blessing to the students. It offers a splendid opportunity to secure Christian growth and to do personal religious work. 'The Young W o m e n s Christian Association is doing excellent work along similar lines of endeavor, and is diligent in its efforts to encourage and inspire Christian living among young women. The students support a weekly prayer meeting, from which the institution continues to reap much spiritual fruit. 'These two organizations co-operate as The Association Union and direct and administer the religious activities of the student body, and under its direction seven Mission Sunday Schools are.conducted within Ottawa County. Mission classes meet once every week to study the history and methods of missions as well as missionary biographies relating more particularly to the mission fields of our own church. The student body through the Association Union support the Principal of Hope High School at Madanapalle, S. India. 'This condition has naturally developed a deep interest in Christian Missions. L I B R A R Y The library, which numbers 30,000 volumes, is open every day except Sunday, for the use of students. Books, pamphlets.

139 Bruce M. Raymond, A. M. John H. L. Schouten

140 magazines, and papers are constantly being added. The friends of Hope College may be assured that their gifts of books to the library will be taken care of, appreciated and made useful by giving them a place upon the ample shelves of the magnificent fire-proof library building. ' In connection with the library is a reading room in which reference books are placed and which is supplied with many valuable periodicals and leading journals on politics, religion,.science and literature by friends of the College. S O C I E T I E S The Literary Societies offer decided advantages to their respective members and materially aid in the attainment of the* culture which it is the object of the College to promote. There are six men s societies and five women s societies, all devoted to literature and music. Those whose interests lie more largely along public speaking and debate are affiliated with the Pi Kappa Delta, a non-secret national forensic group. The Ulifilas Club is an oi'ganization whose purpose is to study the literature and history of The Netherlandish peoples. The Science Club is an association for the advancement of scientific study and research. Its membership is open to instructors and students who are interested in Natural Science. In all of these societies a free, democratic, American spirit is demanded and no class distinctions based upon wealth, position, or influence are tolerated. P U B L I C A T I O N S Connected with the institution, two religious weeklies are published, De Hope and fhe Leader. The first was established in 1866 and is under the direction of the Council through its Editorial Committee. It has a circulation of some 6,000 copies. The second appeared with its initial number September, 1906, and now has a circulation of 7,000 copies. Both are devoted to furthering the cause of the American Reformed Church and non-sectarian education.^g A weekly, called The^Anchor, is conducted by the students with gratifying success.. It has reached its thirty-fourth year, and is well calculated to awaken an esprit de corps among the alumni. No alumnus who wishes to keep himself informed in regard to his Alma Mater and who desires to keep in touch with ner, can afford to be without this paper. The subscription price is $1.50 yearly.

142 A W A R D S A N D P R I Z E S In 1887 the two George Birkhoff, Jr., Prizes, each of twenty-five dollars; one for the Junior Class in English Literature, and the other for the Senior Class in Dutch Literature, were established. A Foreign Missions Prize of twenty-five dollars founded by Mrs. Samuel Sloan, of N e w York City, is awarded to the college student who writes the best essay on Foreign Missions. This contest is open to the whole College. English Grammar. In 1894 two prizes were added to the list of annual awards, one of fifteen dollars for the best, and the other of ten dollars for the second best examination in English Grammar and Orthography, open to all members of the C class. These were established by Henry Bosch, of Chicago, 111. The Dr. J. Ackerman Coles Oratory Prize was founded in The award is made quadrennially upon an oration of a b patriotic nature. The prize is a bronze bust of Washington, after Houdon. The seventh contest will be held in ^ The A. A. Raven Prize in Oratory was established by Mr. A. A. Raven in The prize is divided into a first award of thirty dollars and a second award of twenty dollars. The contest is limited to a subject of a patriotic nature. The winner of the first award represents the College at the contest of the Michigan Oratorical League. The Dr. J. Ackerman Coles Debating Prize was established in The subject and method of debate are not limited in any way, but are subject to the general control of the Faculty. A Domestic Missions Prize was established in September, 1910, by the Rev. and Mrs. S. F.

148 The Almon T. Godfrey Prize in Chemistry. By the provisions of the will of Dr. B. B. Godfrey, who for many years was a leading physician of Holland and deeply interested in scientific education, the sum of $500 was donated to the Council of Hope College, in memory of his son. Prof. Almon T. Godfrey, A. M., M. D., instructor in Chemistry and Physics in 1904 and Professor in Chemistry from 1909 to The interest on this sum is to be given annually at the commencement of Hope College as a prize to the graduating student whose standing is highest in his or her class in the department of Chemistry covering the four years of work at Hope College. F E E S, E X P E N S E S, ETC. 9 The aim constantly kept in mind is to provide at Hope College everything necessary to a broad, liberal education at the lowest possible cost consistent with educational facilities of the most modern and approved type, and with a life of refinement and culture. It is believed that nowhere else in a community as progressive as the city of Holland and vicinity, and in no college of equal standing with Hope College can a student live as inexpensively and as wholesomely. A tuition fee of sixty dollars in the College, and forty dollars in the Preparatory School, is charged each year. This fee is the regular fee for work constituting seventeen semester hours made up as follows: Fifteen hours in academic subjects for which all institutions in the country will allow undergraduates credit or accept in candidacy for professional and advanced degrees, and two hours in religious education or public speaking, both of which are required at Hope College for degree credit and during the residence of a student. An extra fee of two dollars ($2.00) per semester hour is charged if more than seventeen hours are taken during a semester. Not more than twenty hours will be allowed at any time except in the case of very mature or of advanced students and then only by special permission of the Committee on Student Direction and under the condition that grades of not less than 90% on a basis of 701% 100% be maintained in each subject. Hope College reserves the right to matriculate students and to continue them in residence on the basis of its conclusions regarding the capacity of the student to do work of a college grade and his fitness to live under the social conditions fostered on the campus. This right includes the privilege of withdrawal of residence permission without statement of reasons therefor. Fees must be paid in advance at the time of registration.

150 Laboratory fees cover only the actual cost of apparatus and material used by each individual student. As these vary with each student, no satisfactory statement can be made regarding them. The college graduation fee^'is ten dollars, which must be paid immediately after the student is admitted to candidacy for the degree. In the Gymnasium a nominal fee to cover rental of lockers and incidental expenses is the only official charge. Expenses connected with, team and club or special work are met by the students engaging in the work, and the amount expended lies wholly within the pleasure of the student. The Faculty discountenances all ill-advised or unnecessary expenses. Gambling, betting, and similar practices are absolutely forbidden, and we are glad to say that up to the present time the student body at Hope College is united in condemning these questionable pactices. A keen spirit of rivalry, looking to manly and friendly contest in scholarship, oratory, and physical excellence, is promoted by Faculty and student alike. The cost of living upon the campus is correspondingly low. -A. limited number of rooms are provided for men students, and are rented at a.cost barely covering the expense of light and fuel. There are twenty-five rooms in Van Vleck Hall, in the selection of which students looking toward the Christian ministry have the preference. These are unfurnished. Van Vleck Hall is heated by steam and lighted by electricity. Complete accommodations are provided for women in Voorhees Hall. The building, lighted by electicity and heated by steam, is capable of housing one hundred girls. It is equipped in the most modern way in every detail. There are large general baths and toilets, individual lavatories, reception parlors, and dining rooms. Rooms may be rented, single or en suite. A special circular giving full details regarding accommodations at Voorhees Hall will be sent upon application to the Dean of Women. I he cost of rentals in private homes of the city varies from fifty cents a week, without heat, to three dollars a week, with heat and light. While the Council and Faculty make no restrictions as to the choice of p o m s by the students, they insist that all conditions shall be strictly in keeping with refined and moral living. Accommodation for board are provided in the dining rooms at Voorhees Hall for both men and women. The price of board is five dollars a week. The home plan of regular meals at stated hours is at present followed; in this way one hundred students may be accommodated.

152 A tabular estimate of expenses is given herewith which does not include clothing and travel, since these must necessarily vary with each individual. This estimate is based on living upon the campus. C O L LEGE: Tuition...$ Rent Board Books and sundries $ Laboratory fees are extra, and are noted under the courses offered. The above estimate is an answer to those who want to know how much money is absoutely needed. Of course, the expense of some of the students exceeds this amount; some, however, spend less. A number of our students earn enough money to pay their way through college. Young people of noble aspiration but of limited means need not be discouraged. At Hope College they will find many like themselves,' some of w hom have come a great distance seeking an education. Such as thees are in earnest, content with plain living, and, by practicing the economies possible in this place, succeed in reducing their expenses within very narrow limits. Trolley lines from Holland to Saugatuck and Grand Rapids and all intervening points and motor bus lines in all directions enable students living along, these lines to come in for the day, and thus materially reduce expenses. D I S C I P L I N E It is gratifying to observe that the moral and spiritual tone of the students is such that the matter of discipline is reduced to a minimum. General opinion is on the side of right and reasonableness, and lends its powerful support to the interest of good Oder and efficient work. It is the aim of Hope College to develop this high moral culture and character of the student no less than to advance his intellectual development. In general, however, if it appears that students do not improve their time and opportunities, or do not conduct themselves in a respectable and orderly manner, their connection with the institution is suspended; or if it should be found, after due probation and inquiry, that the influence of a student is bad and injurious to others, the right is exercised of requiring the'withdrawal of such a student. The reader is asked to refer also to a similar statement under the caption Fees above.

154 A record is kept of the scholastic standing of each student and a copy of the same is sent to the parents or guardian at the close of each semester. If the average standing does not exceed 70 on a basis of 100, he is dropped from his class. All students are required to be present, promptly on the first day of each and every seemster, when recitations begin at the usual hour, eight o clock. Fees and room rent are to be paid strictly in advance. Dancing, card playing, and the use of tobacco are prohibited on the open campus., Parents living at a Idistance are requested not to,ask or expect their children to comeaftome during term time. ^It^seriously interferes with proper'^habits of study, and by^bur'rules no one is to be absent from the institution without permission of the President. MUSEUM, The treasures of the Museum include replica marbles of Venus de Milo and Ajax, the gifts of Dr. Jonathan Ackerman Coles, of N e w York. Both are imported origpnal-size busts of exquisite workmanship in copying and in detail. They are mounted upon marble pedestals which are also the gifts of Dr. Coles. W e are rarely fortunate in the possession of these statues and deeply grateful to the donor for his, gifts, and, more than all, for the kindly interest in Hope College which prompted him in presenting them. A mong Dr. Coles previous gifts are photographs in full size of the Apollo Belvedere, Augustus, Michael, Angelo s Moses and the Discus Throwwer of Myron; the bronze bust of Houdon s Washington;>also interest-bearing securities, the proceeds of which are devoted once in every three years to the purchase of a bronze bust of W^ashington, offered as a prize to students presenting the best oration on a patriotic subje^. The first contest held upon the Coles Foundation took place Mpy 30, The Museum has been enriched recenty by gifts from Revs. A. L. Warnshuis, 97; J. J. Banninga, 98; H. V. S. Peeke, 87; Mr. H. G. Keppel, 89; Mr. W m. Damson, 01; Dr. A. Olimans, 83; Mr. Con De Pree, Dr. S. M. Zwemer, and by a large private collection embracing mineralogy, geology, paleontology, five thousand specimens of mosses, fresh and salt water shells, fish and corals, which were given by a valued friend of Hope. A recent gift by a friend of long standing and unswerving loyalty is adarge number of photographs and photogravures of artistic and scientific subjects.. '.

157 P I A N O Mr. Oscar C. Cress Mr. Cress is an exponent of the Leschetizky method, having been a pupil in the celebrated Leschetizky school in Vienna, Austria, where he studied for a time with Mme. Malwine Bree, the first assistant, afterwards becoming a personal pupil of the master Theodore Leschetizky. While in Vienna, Mr. Cress studied harmony and counterpoint with Karl Pfieger. Previously to going abroad, Mr. Cress had the benefit of years of study in his native land. He began his music work with Karl Andersch, who was a personal pupil of Leschetizky for years. ' Mr. Cress is a graduate of the American Conservatory of Music, in Chicago, in the departments of piano, harmony, counterpoint, and composition. In the art of piano playing and interpretation, Mr. Cress won special distinction at his graduation recital, having been awarded the gold medal by the American Conservatory of Music for the playing of the Schumann Concerto in A minor, which'was the competitive composition. After returning from abroad, Mr. Cress was made a member of the faculty of the Cliicago Conservatory of Music, where he was at the head of the Leschetizky department. In addition to his teaching, Mr. Cress has an extensive repertoire for recital and concert work. T H E V O I C E A N D S I N G I N G 'Mrs. W. J. Fenton Mrs. Fenton began her vocal training in Chicago with Noyes B. Minor. Later she studied with Karleton Hackett, the well known maestro and music critic on the Chicago Evening Post.

After this she went to Germany and was coached by Mme. Gadski, returning to teach in the American Conservatory, Chicago. After considerable experience in concert, oratorio, and recital work, she settled in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where, at her studio, many of the best professionals of Western Michigan were trained. Besides teaching voice, Mrs. Fenton has had considerable success coaching in oratorio and opera. Mrs. Fenton s instructipn.in:yoice and Singing includes the following; Voice placement;- breathing; tone production; inter

158 pretation; diction; study of the compositions of American, English, French, Russian, German, and Italian composers; oratorio and opera. Mrs. Michaelson, assistant in Voice, is a pupil of Mrs. Fenton and successfully teaches her method. P I P E O R G A N Mr. George Dok The School of Music has secured the services of Mr. George Dok, of Holland, to teach Pipe Organ. Mr. Dok began his pipe organ study with Mr. Walter Hartley, formerly of Grand Rapids, and later with Mr. Arthur Dunham, of Chicago. H e also spent considerable time coaching with Mr. Clarence Eddy, America s foremost organist and teacher. Mr. Dok spares no effort in teaching his pupils the time organ touch and uses only the best examples of the classics and m o d e m literature written for the organ. V j O L I N Mr. Harvey Fairbanks ' A change was affected in the Department of Violin by Mr. Wecker s resignatipn. Mr. Harvey Fairbanks was secured to teach violin and direct the college orchestra. Mr. Fairbanks is a brilliant young violinist, first discovered and taught by Mr. Perry Weed of Holland. Since leaving Holland, Mr. Fairbanks has studied in N e w York City for two years under Victor Knezdo and Rudolph Larsen, first assistants to the great violin virtuoso and teacher. Professor Auer. Mr. Fairbanks has also been coached by Roderick White, the fine violinist, well known in America, and a pupil of Professor Auer. He was a member for eight months of Jersey Sy m phony; also played solo violin in a string orchestra on an English steamer, plying between England and South America. Mr. Fairbanks also taught violin in the Winkler School of Music and played on.many occasions at concerts and musicales. H I S T O R Y A N D T H E O R Y Mr. Rowland W. Dunham Mr. Rowland W. Dunham, F. A. G. 0., has charge of the department of History of Music and conducts the work in Theory and in Appreciation this year. Mr., Dunham is a graduate

159 of the New England Conservatory of Music and a pupil of Widor and of Andre Block, Paris.;; He has been teacher of Theory and of Organ at Ohio Wesleyan. He is also connected with the editorial.staff of the American Organist. He is now"- choir master and organist at the Fountain Street Baptist Church, Grand Rapids, Michigan. C O L L E G E O R C H E S T R A The College Orchestra is conducted by Mr. John Lloyd Kollen. It is at present limited in membership to pupils of advanced standing and ability and membership is subject to Faculty approval. Credit for work of approved character is granted for application to the Musical Degree. (See requirements for degree.) Mr. Kollen commenced piano study under Mrs. Hazel Wing Guild of the Hope College School of Music. In 1922, studying with Mrs. Robbins, he won the first prize in the State High School contest. In 1923 he studied piano and composition in Germany, received encouragement from Edwin Fischer, foremost authority on Bach and Beethoven in Europe today, who advised studying in Ne w York under Paolo Galileo. In he studied in N e w York, piano under Gallico and Carl Friedberg, composition under Paolo Gallico, and analysis and history under Daniel Gregory Mason. At present he is studying in Chicago, piano under Anna Goebel, and composition, orchestration and analysis under Louis Victor Saar, foremost authority on American Folk Song, and teacher of Mr. Weber, youngest conductor of opera in Chicago Civic Opera. As a director, Mr. Kollen has had the unusual opportunity of appearing as musical director for sixteen of the most famous radio stars, on tour during the past.summer. This caused him to decline an Invitation to appear as soloist with the Philoharmonic Society of N e w Yoi'k City, under Willein Von.Hoogstraten. ' A group called H O P E T R U M P E T E R S has been organized during the year and their work will constitute an auxiliary to the Orchestra. They have appeared in several public programs.

160 C O L L E G E B A N D A student band, consisting of over forty pieces, is diercted by Mr. Herman C. Johnson. Much enthusiasm is displayed in private practice and in public performance under Mr. Johnson s direction.' G L E E C L U B S Two Girls Glee Clubs and one.men s Glee Club are conducted by Mrs. Grace Dudley Fenton. The first Girls Glee Club was organized in Since that time the work has been carried on with increasing success under Mrs. Fenton s able direction and public performances have been given locally and several concert trips have been made. The Junior Glee Club was organized in Its membership is made up of pupils in voice who are beginning their studies and who give promise of successful and artistic group work at a later period. Credit on degree requirements is given for the work of the senior organization. The Men s Glee Club has had an intermittent existence for over thirty-five years. During the last three years the club has been enlarged to a membership of fifty. The best material is segregated for special work and public programs are given by the smaller group. Pupils of ability and ambition are urged to apply for membership and to avail themselves of the training afforded in public singing and conducting. Under certification by the Faculty credit towards the degree in music is granted, to members of the club. (See requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Music.) These Musical Groups are conducted not alone for the pleasure of the membership, although this factor is a large element in the life of young people. The experience and training afforded by competent leadership, group practice and public performances enables the members to train others when they themselves enter professional and social life. Church Music and Public School Music are being developed very rapidly in America and we need a competent leadership for these subjects. The School of Music aims to give the student body the highest type of training and practice and an appreciation of and acquaintance with the best methods and compositions in musical technique. '

161 A D M I S S I O N Students of all grades are admitted into the School of Music. A thorough examination in the work prequisite to admission in any branch or advanced grade is given before a course is outlined. After the examination has been completed careful advice is given and a teacher assigned suited to the needs of the student. A careful record of the work done in course is kept and a copy is submitted to the parent or guardian on request. This record may constitute the student s credentials to scholarship applications or grant of the degree of Bachelor of Music. Tuition costs depend wholly upon the nature of the work taken. Details are contained in the November Bulletin. Correspondence may be addressed to Prof. John B. Nykerk, Sec.

164 T H E P R E P A R A T O R Y SCHOOL The Prep^^ory School, a secondary school affiliated with H O P E COLLEGE, is the oldest educational institution in the city of Holland and the county of Ottawa For a number of years it was the only secondary school in the county. It was opened in 1851 and has continued ever since, offering a full standard secondary or high school course. While it is under the direct control of the Council of Hope College, it is not in any sense a parochial school. It was modeled by its founders after the strong private schools of the East, and it has kept to this standard throughout the years. It does not offer all the varied courses of the large high schools, for it is distinctly a College Preparatory School, basing its groups on the Freshman Entrance Requirements of standard colleges. It invites three classes of pupils. First, there is the group who, for one reason or another, give preference to a private school after the primary and grade work of the public schools have been completed. Those who desire preparation in the ancient classics, in the English and continental literatures, with the thought of ultimately taking post-graduate university work, and those who aim at professions of a distinctly literary foundation make up the majority of this group. The second group is comprised of those who for some reason have found it impossible to carry on their educational work with the usual regularity. These are often of mature years before the opportunity comes to take up their work again. The work is so arranged that these may take advantage of intensive yet very thorough training and enter college without further loss of time. The requirements for graduation are no different for these than for any other, sixteen secondary units being the minimum; but the amount of resident time may be decreased if the maturity of the pupil warrants more intensive programs. Students who are granted this privilege are required to maintain higher averages than the rest of the student body, and to demonstrate during their entire residence their ability to profit by the work undertaken. The third group is composed of those who have found it necessary to support themselves in whole or in part while they are carrying on their educational work. Programs of less than four secondarj' units are arranged for these, and the work is taken as opportunity permits. The amount of academic work allowed is under the direct supervision of the Faculty, and the student is required to maintain grades high enough to show purposeful work and adequate capacity. Owing to the fact that it is a private school, a more direct

166 stress may be laid on a Christian environment and influence. Each student is required to attend daily chapel, and the College Pastor gives each class required work in Religious Education throughout the four years of the course. Excuse from this is granted only on the basis of religious scruples, and then by written requests of the parents or guardians. There are no standards of admission ba.sed on creed, training or nationality, and there are no demands of an ethical or religious nature made during the four years except those of a high moral character and a definite purpose in school work, nor is graduation dependent on specific ethical or religious standards; no person, however, is allowed to continue in residence if he fails to conduct himself, purpo.sefully or otherwise, on the highest ethical plane. During the four years of residence emphasis is laid strongly on the principles and practice of Christianity as the only proper ba.sis for manhood and right citizenship. Sixteen units of work must be completed before a diploma of graduation will be given, and no certificate of any sort is giv'en in lieu of the diploma. The usual transcript will be sent to other schools if the student should discontinue his work and enter another institution, but accredited graduation requires sixteen secondary units. The work in the Preparatory School is arranged according to the group system, with required subjects. It is felt that the average secondary student is not far enough advanced to enable him to choose his own stmlies under a complete or partial elective system. Constant guidance is offered in the selection of the group and the maintenance of a high grade of work. Every instructor is ready at all times to assist any.student in his school or his personal difficulties. Independence of habits of study is fostered, but at no time is the student left wholly to his own devices. The social aspect of life for young people is given its full consideration; on the other hand, the laxness of pursuit and the stress laid upon athletic and other external interests, which are so common in some communities, are eliminated as fully as possible. The School does not attempt to function for such as are incapable of good mental work, or for those who have failed in other schools through neglect and have no desire to accomplish results. Just as in H O P E C O L L E G E the aim is a purposeful training under the influence of Christian surroundings and with the open intent of character formation through the influence of these surroundings, so in The Preparatory School purpose and character are first and foremost in thought and. function. Details of the group and requirements and further informa-

167 tion may be had by addressing or calling upon any of the officials or instructors in the School. ADMISSION Pupils holding an Eighth Grade Diploma of an accredited public school will be admitted to the D class without examination; while applicants who do not have such certificate will be subject to a strict examination in the common school branches Arithmetic, English Grammar and Composition, United States History, Geography (not including Physical), Reading and Orthography. The examinations will be graded according to the requirements of the aforesaid diploma. Advanced standing may be obtained only after e.xamination in all required subjects prerequisite to a given classification. GRADES A N D REPORTS ' The minimum passing grade is 70 on a basis of 100.

194 A W O R D T O A L U M N I A N D O T H E R F R I E N D S It is with justifiable pride that Hope College.points to the more than one thousand men and women whom, in the course of the half-century of her existence, she has equipped and furnished for life s varied activities. Nothing redounds more greatly to her credit or reflects greater honor upon her than the fact that her influence has availed in some measure to arouse the latent talents, or multiply the native gifts, or inspire the lofty ideals that have made these lives more productive in the fields of service into which they have entered. These alumni and alumnae are her joy and crown, and to know that wherever, under God s kind leading, they have gone to better the world, they rise to call her blessed, heartens Alma Mater to enter hopefully the ever-widening fields of opportunity that invite and challenge. The older institutions of the land see their 'sons and daughters, many of whom have prospered, a band of real and true supporters to whom they never appeal in vain when they feel themselves in need. If they lengthen their cords and strengthen their stakes and increase the bounds of their habitation from time to time, it is because their alumni all over the land and world make it possible. Princely gifts for improved equipment and increased endowment and much needed buildings are constantly reported. It is the impulse of gratitude that prompts to such benefactions; and is there a more fitting way to express one s feelings of attachment to the institution that has done so much to make one s life honored and fruitful, than by enabling it to do still more of that kind of work and to do it still better? And surely it will not be deemed ungracious or unreasonable if it be said that Hope College looks with longing and desire to her alumni fur increased material support, especially to those who have entered the more remunerative callings. It is a pleasure to note that several have already generously recognized their obligations. Will not others follow in their train? The splendid group of buildings that adorn our college campus and the considerable endowment which our College now has, are a lasting and noble memorial to friends East and West, who

195 have thus visualized their interest in higher Christian education. Many of them have gone to their reward, but their memory remains fragrant and their influence flows on for good. Hope College needs more of such friends. Will you not be one of them? A larger endowment and one or two new buildings would enable the College to do its growing work with much more freedom and efficiency. If it lies in your mind to do something in this direction the President will be glad to correspond with you or call at your home. For those who prefer to remember the College iii their wills, we append a form of bequest. Pastors of Reformed Churches may render great service by bringing the financial claims of our institution to the attention of the members of their congregations, and by directing promising young men and women seeking a Christian education to the advantages which Hope College offers.

197 Western Theological Seminary Theological training in Holland and the history of Hope College are symnomous terms. For when the Colonists thought of education, they thought in terms of divinity training. A ministry of the highest culture, with masterly ability to interpret the Bible and to be in very real sense Dominie M A S T E R was their desire. Other practical pursuits were to be made possible, but this was the capstone. In consequence, the College and Theological Department were one for the first period in the history of the Colony. This fact was brought home to the General Synod when seven members of the first graduating class of the College petitioned for theological studies at Hope College. Synod granted the request and arranged for the professors of the College to give the necessary instruction. In 1867 the Rev. Cornelius E. Crispell was formally elected. Professor of Didactic and Polemic Theology at Hope College, he was directed to give with assistance from, the other professors, theological instruction in connection with his duties in the College. For a supervising body. Synod divided its Board of Superintendents! of the Seminary at N e w Brunswick, which was composed of one delegate from each Classis of the denomination, into an Eastern and a Western Section. The Western Group was to have charge of theology at Hope College. Its work was greatly embarrassed by the lack of money and its relation to the Synod was not according to the traditions of the Church. This condition finally led to a suspension of theology in 1877, but Synod at the same time emphatically assured the western churches that it would gladly restore instruction in divinity as soon as endowment could be secured. Endowment for one professorship was secured by 1884 and largely through great sacrifice on the part of the western churches. Synod was enabled to elect Rev. Dr. Nicholas M. Steffens Professor of Didactic and Polemic Theology, with Rev. Peter Moerdyke and Rev. Henry E. Dosker as temporary Lectors. Dir. Steffens resigned his position in 1895 and Rev. Dr. Egbert Winter was chosen his successor. He resigned in 1904 and Rev. Dr. G. H. Dubbink was elected to the department. Dr.
